Lyrics

I can’t light no more of your dark (C)ness. All my pic tures seem to fade to black and white. I’m grow ing tired and time stands still be fore (C)me. Fro zen here, on the lad der of my (G)life. Too late to save my self from (C)fall ing. I took a chance and changed your way of life. But you mis read my mean ing when I (F)met you. Closed the door and left me blind ed by the light. Don’t let the sun go (C)down on me. Al though I search my self, it’s al ways (D7)some one else I see. I’d just al low a frag ment of your (F)life to wan der free. But (F)los ing ev ’ry thing is like the (Dm)sun (C)go (F)ing (C)down (F)on (C)me. I can’t find, oh, the right ro (C)man tic line. But see me once and see the way I feel. Don’t dis card me just be cause you think I mean you harm. But these cuts I have, oh, they need (C)love to help them (G)heal. (C)me.
